Farewell, Fred Voodoo
A Conversation with Amy Wilentz
The Forum for Scholars and Publics hosted a discussion with Amy Wilentz about her book, Farewell, Fred Voodoo: A Letter from Haiti. Farewell, Fred Voodoo is a powerful and personal meditation on the history of Haiti and the history of its representation, based on decades of writing and reporting about the country. Wilentz’s work as a journalist and writer on Haiti as well as in the Middle East and other regions raises broad issues about the relationship between media, culture, and politics in the contemporary world.
